Problem with K'Vort -1 reply

Please wait...

OS: WinXP SP2
Game: Armada II
Version: 1.1 (patch from armada2.filefront.com)
Language: german
Mods/Addons/Changes: none, new installation and patched
Problem: I downloaded K'Vort from here: http://armada2.filefront.com/file/KVort;8824 and installed everything step by step. When I started Armada II and tried to build it, it did not appear in the list. I tried to play with enabling to have all technology at start, but even there, K'Vort could not be build (as it was neither in the build list of the normal and the big klingon yard).

Does someone know, how to fix that or has someone an idea, what could be wrong?

Recommend that you read the instructions in the readme file that is included with the download as it appears to differ from what you posted above.
Updated Animated Wings K'Vort Bird of Prey Class
Version: 1.1
This is a updated version for Armada2's BoP ship. The K'Vort Bird of Prey Class with movable
wings for ATTACK and CRUISING/WARPSPEED modes(like in the movies and films).
I have updated this mod from the original 1.0 mod version. This version now has wireframe pics,
Admiral's Log pics and NEWER/BETTER/EASIER working 'Attack/Warp Speed' Buttons(2 buttons) to
switch modes(view attached pics for examples).
INSTALLATION
unzip all the files to your armada2 directory like this:

7) Open and add this to your 'tech1.tt' file(in the Klingon section):
kdestroy1.odf 2 kyard.odf kresear2.odf // destroyer (K'Vort bird of prey)
And open your fulltech.tt and add this to the Klingon's list:
kdestroy1.odf 0

8) HOW DOES THIS WORK:
Select the desire K'Vort ship and then click on the 'Warpspeed(Klingon letter 'A')button.
This will ACTIVATE the ship to the 'WARPSPEED/CRUISER' Mode. To switch to 'Attack', press
the attack(Klingon letter 'B') button. This will activate to 'Attack/Battle' mode.

KNOWN BUG:
There are no known bugs(if installed properly)

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Some files may be OVERWRITTEN like; events.dat, tech1.tt, earlytech.tt, fulltech.tt,
freetech.tt, gui_global.spr, weapons.spr, *.cfg & *.spr files THAT you may already edited/
modified for personal reasons, so back up your files first before installing! If you're a EXPECT
in editing files and don't want your personalized files changed, then I suggest to back-up your
personalized/modified files and do what you know best in EDITING!
I CAN NOT/WILL NOT BE HELD FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY UNEXPLAINED DAMAGES/CRASHES TO YOUR COMPUTER,

peppermandoes the ship show up in the storm 3d viewer (i.e., can you see the kvot.sod in the viewer)?[/quote]

Sorry, I am rather new with such programs.
Is this freeware?

Ray 101Could you post the text in the Kyard.odf (Or whatever station you are useing it on.)

Also In-game is there a blank spot where the build button should be? And in instant action what tech level are you playing? (Early upgrades, No super.)

Yes, but I have to re-edit it before (then I'll post both, original and edited files), because I reinstalled the whole game, as LAN did not work anymore (different versions).

And no, there is no blank spot.
All is the same as if nothing were edited.
